I fill my sprinkler valve from the pilot on my golfball gun, havent had a problem yet. Or maybe I have cursed the valve by filling it wrong?



I bought a ASCO 2 Way Main Pulse Valve . Thanks for the link Cwazy1!

Yeah once again thanks Cwazy1! I'm not sure I really have a use for one let alone two cuz loud booms echo around here. I'll prolly make myself a BFG2; as if the (3.) 1" Orbits weren't enough on the first one. Or I might make a tennis ball cannon. I need a source of PW pipe above 2" around here now lol, that way I don't have 30lbs of 2" parts in a manifold. I have a valveless propane tank in the other room 2.0 upgrades to 2.1 with a new bung welded on. Don't mind me I'm thinking aloud, check the "best shot on vid" thread to see what I'm talking about. http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/competi ... rt,15.html

Side Note: Dewey and I burried the hatchet I threw. Sorry about earlier man!

Hey Crowley,
I'm sure if you talked to someone here they could buy a valve and ship it to you. It would cost more for shipping, obviously, but you'd still be getting a good deal.

Or you could try and talk the guy into sending you one. It might work.

Well i thought about selling one of my valves bec i bought 2 already and they should come in a couple of days. If i cant think of ne thing to use the second one for, then ill send it to you MrCrowley.

Sweet, i'll pay for it, shipping shouldn't be too bad and i've got like $200NZD from xmas.

Asco's other valves are kinda the same design just a diferent shape...Im talking about the brass ones...you can mod them just like sprinkler valves....They kinda look like sprinkler valves also....

Any pilot valve that I can think of CAN be filled from the pilot, but that doesn't mean it should be filled from the pilot.

If you are filling sprinkler valve from the pilot then you are using a low flow air source, waiting for it to fill, or you enlarged the equalization hole which can decrease performance.

I just fill with a schrader, pilot with blowgun. There was a white thing plugging the equalization hole so I took it out.

Mrcrowly couldn't some kind spudder get one and ship it to you them self and you pay them price, shipping and maybe a litle something extra?

That's what LMC might be doing, if it doesn't work out with him, I may ask someone else.

sorry mrc ive got too much of a hangover to read things properly soz m8

Hmm, I'd love one or two of those, but aside from the fact I'm outside the US, if I'm entirely honest, I'm not sure I could use one anyway, I don't have the space to use a sizeable pneumatic, and knowing me, I'd want to put 300 psi into it...

Sorry about about the misunderstanding 2 pages ago I mistaked that built in pilot QEVish thing for some sort of detaching mini solenoid valve

could you do me a huge favor and give us data to plug the valve into GGDT
